My 6 week old pullet is limping. She's been like this for a day and a half now. This morning when I picked her up, she stayed still for a while, and then, when she wanted to go play, she jumped out of my hands and did a front flip, landing on her side. She lives indoors, in a large cage(until we can finish building our coop) with a 3 month old pullet and they get along like family, but I can't imagine what happened. She's so pitiful, I'm so scared that we might have to put her down.

Any similar cases? Someone please help me!
 
Not really, she's doing everything she normally does. Walking is the only thing that's wrong :/ But I noticed that her poop is a very bright green. I had her outside this morning, but I brought her inside by herself so that she might relax. She's sleeping, but every so often she wakes up and peeps really loudly, then goes back to sleep. I hope she's not hurting

Do you usually let her outside? If she ate a lot of grass that can contribute to the green poop. My Momma turkey limps she acts completely normal and is thriving though so it is most likely not anything to worry about. But just to be sure pick her up and whichever leg it is she's limping on feel it for bumps or if it feels grainy she could have broken it but it's unlikely. I would say if you feel like you need to do something split it and wrap it loosely and leave it for a couple of days. I hope this helps let me know if she gets any worse!
 
Okay, thanks for the help! I also read online that giving a limping bird vitamin b will help them. So I'm also going to try that, I'm really hoping that will help. I'll keep you posted :)
